My real name is Melissa Norvell and I'm an aspiring manga artist and writer. I'm 31 years old and live in Oklahoma. My life-long dream is to become a manga-ka and I've been working very hard on my stories that I also have drawn versions of. I just hope that they are good enough to one day help me achieve my dream.

I also have a personal Facebook page. If you want to get into contact with me that way, please add me here- http://www.facebook.com/melissa.norvell.5 (NOT ACTIVE)

*MY REVIEW POLICY*

You review me, and I will review you in return.

I will not give you a review just for leaving me a review that suggests I read your stories. That is not a proper review and it shows me that if you have nothing to say about my story then you haven't read it and you just want a review without reading my material.

I will return the number of reviews given to me. If you've read my whole story then I will read yours.

Fair is fair.

Reviews I Owe People. If your name is below, I still owe you a review or many. I will take the names off as I give out the proper number of reviews.
